The Swampwater

Konrad Kantor of New Orleans' Manolito Bar and Restaurant joins us today to explore — and in our opinion elevate — the Swampwater. A mix of Chartreuse, pineapple, and lime, the Swampwater represents the famous French herbal liqueur brand's answer to disco-era favorites such as the Fuzzy Navel and Sex on the Beach.
